Answer:

B to provide information about Jesse Owens' famous wins and the effect that they, and his attitude, had on others

Explanation:

The author Shelby Ostergaad wrote basically about the accomplishments of Jesse Owens and how others especially the whites looked down on him because of his color. He did not allow this to deter him, rather he continued pushing for success.

He succeeded at the Olympics of 1936, to the disappointment of Adolf Hitler who believed that Whites were superior to blacks. His accomplishments was still not highly welcome as he was not given jobs even after he came back from the Olympics.
